gridGraphics包由Paul Murrell編寫，核心函數(shù)是grid.echo()，其目的是將graphics包中的圖形轉(zhuǎn)換并在grid繪圖系統(tǒng)中重制，拆解為lines，polygon，segments，points，xlab和box等若干可在grid繪圖系統(tǒng)中可修飾的組件。
以boxplot()為例,簡述其運(yùn)行原理。
boxplot(disp ~ cyl, data = mtcars)
通過grid.echo()拆分組件，并用grid.ls()查看。
library(gridGraphics)
grid.echo(prefix = "cp")
grid.ls()

grid包中的grid.edit()可對以上組件進(jìn)行修飾。如
ps:使用par()布局即可。
grid.edit("cp-plot-1-polygon-1", gp = gpar(fill = "red"))
grid.edit("cp-plot-1-points-3", gp = gpar(col = "red"))
grid.edit("cp-plot-1-left-axis-ticks-1", gp = gpar(col = "red"))
